It’s important to speak about this because when you are giving information, you often have to discuss how many people did something or the success or the results of something.

Vocabulary

• None of
• All of
• Most of
• Some of
• A few of
• Half of

Notice that they all have “of”, it’s because it’s a proportion, is saying how much of the full amount, so it’s very close to be a percentage, but it’s less precise than a percentage.

Insert the words below in the percentage line

None of

A few of

Some of

Half of

A lot of

Most of

All of

0% ——————————————————— 50% —————————————————— 100%

These words are very useful when you are trying to talk about percentages, but in a less systematic way, when you are giving a general proportion of people or things, and specially when you’re talking about results.

What is the percentage?

• Most of the people enjoyed their trip.
• Tell about some particularities about your country using the words in this class!
